Does INTEGRITY come naturally to you? Most of us have to work to maintain this value. Check out these six practices for a clear roadmap to become a successful leader of integrity.
ONE MAN
All it takes is one man (or woman) to take action, make an impact, and change history. What can you do to become a leader and make a difference for the kingdom of God?
IT'S FINAL JUDGEMENT
Relax! I know we often consider that day when history, as we know it, will come to an end and every human being that ever lived will stand before the throne of God, but this is not a post about that. The Bible says we will escape final judgment because of what Christ did for us, but His sacrifice does not exempt us from giving an account to God of how we lived out the faith which saved us.
"DECISIONES" FACING YOUTH
My heart sunk when ILI leaders came to my high school to talk to us about the consequences of pornography consumption. There was a silence and seriousness I had never felt with my classmates, and in a strange way, it was unifying. Now my life is on a different path. I'm not going back.

THE OTHER SIDE OF FORGIVENESS
We are all imperfect and prone to sin. As leaders, the words we say and the attitudes we project in response can be the difference between a minor incident and a major crisis.
WHAT DID JESUS DO?
We live in a time filled with violence and war. Seeking for ways to respond, many question, "What would Jesus do?" The truth is, He already gave us the answer, and He made it His prayer on the cross.
SPIRITUAL WARFARE INTELLIGENCE BRIEFING
The Bible declares we are in a state of war, not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual beings that seek our destruction. In order to be prepared, we must discern the enemy's schemes and prepare a counterattack.
WHEN TO WALK AWAY
Leadership positions are limited, and walking away is equally as important as leading itself. The issue is knowing when a season ends and when it is time to move on. Consider these four questions to ask yourself to determine whether it is time to stay or time to walk away.
HAND SANITIZER AND LEADERSHIP
After pandemic health scares, hand sanitizer has become a hot commodity. We may not have to deal with such traumatic events, but we will face obstacles and even failure in our pursuit of God’s vision for our lives. The question is: Are you willing to make the necessary changes to overcome?
MISTAKEN IDENTITY
Have you ever responded in a way that made others mistake you for a non-believer? Our identity is not determined in church service, but more likely in times of stress and difficulty. These are God-given opportunities to show what it means to be a "new creation in Christ." Where does your true identity lie?

FAITHFUL TO THE END
Taking a stand for Christ isn't easy. We can flee for our lives, deny our faith, lie, or even kept our mouths shut... Or we can be faithful to the end. Will you take a stand for Jesus?
ROADS AND THE ROAD
We live in the age of roads. Wherever we go in the world, we travel by car, van, or bus, and roads are the way to get from point “A” to point “B.” There may be many roads, but only two truly matter. Which road are you taking?
